Another tiring day!

Saturday was yet another tiring day. I drove down to college to collect cash for purchasing the apparatus required for our model making. From my college, I dove down to Andheri to pick up the material, and then returned to college to hand over the apparatus. I drove back home after that. That was a 100+ kilometre drive through heavily crowded roads!I was damn tired at the end of the day, but still wanted to make a visit to the sports ground of BVP's College which is just 4 kms from home. Our college was playing against MET College in a game of cricket. When I reached there, about 2 and a half overs were remaining. The match was decisive, and our players were battling quite well. We were on the batting side. In the last over, we required about 12 runs. On the 4th ball, the batsman took the ball for a four. In the next ball, they scored 3 runs. In the last ball, he hit above for a four/six. Unluckily, he was caught out and our team is now out of the tournament!After a dejected day, I returned back home. Today, I have hell lots of work to be done, and hope to back to normal by tomorrow!

KSRTC went in for a new brand name for the Scanias, and called them the Airavat Diamond Class. The basic question, like everyone asked, was - what is the difference between the Diamond Class and the Club Class. One primary difference was that Club Class used Volvo B9Rs and Mercedes Benz Multi-Axle buses, while Diamond Class used newer Scania Metrolink HD 13.7m multi-axle buses. Club Class buses have a seating capacity of 49 (44 semi-sleeper seats and 5 regular 'executive' seats), while Diamond Class buses have only 46 seats - all semi-sleeper. The fares are the same in both the classes.

Airavat Diamond Class was first inducted into the KSRTC fleet sometime during the end of June 2015. They initially replaced the first set of M…

The authorities at the Karnataka Transport Department hatched a plan to decongest the crowded and congested Central Bus station (officially called the Kempegowda Bus Station, and locally called Majestic) located right opposite the City Railway Station some time in 2004-5. The new terminus - called the "Satellite Bus Station" was planned at a place called "Guddadahalli" along the Mysore Road. This place is about 6 kilometres from the existing Terminus at the heart of the city.

The place is undoubtedly mordern that the current bus station, but is not even one-fourth the size of the current place!

The plan behind the entire move was to decongest the current bus station. The terminus finally was inaugurated sometime in August 2005. As an initial measure, all express services towards Mysore was shifted there. Sometime in August 2007, another 419 services (including 373 of Tamilnadu) were sent there. The terminus is situated away from the city, and for pas…
